Well folks, it’s that’s time of the week again! And for once I’m not entirely sure where this post is going…
I think we’ve gotten to a little bit of an awkward stage in the competition, where the good skaters are very good, and the ones that weren’t so good, are starting to improve and catch up with them, this means that unfortunately the weaker skaters are exposed, and for me Rosemary Conley sticks out like a sore thumb. And whilst I applaud her spirit and mentality for even giving the lifts a go, I do think it might be the right time for her to leave. I think she was very over marked this evening, but then the scoring did seem to be a little bit all over the place.

Andy Whyment certainly brings the fun to Dancing On Ice and this evening we couldn’t help but laugh at some of his antics in rehearsals.
He is always so light hearted and enjoyed a lot of jokes with coaches Torville and Dean, as well as some giggles with his professional partner Vicky Ogden but this week, he also tried to knuckle down and improve on his basic skating skills, with special emphasis on his lifts.

Jorgie Porter, Jennifer Ellison and Andy Whyment all missed their Dancing On Ice rehearsals at the end of this week, because of the cold spell that has descended over the UK.
The actors were stuck in their Northern England hometowns, after ice and snow led to the cancellations of many trains and transport services and bosses were said to be panicking that the absence of three of their contestants, could throw Sunday’s show into disarray.

We can’t wait to see Andy Whyment on Dancing On Ice this evening, just to see if he is half as hopeless and gormless as his Coronation Street character Kirk.
The 30 year old star has been partnered with brunette beauty Vicky Ogden for the 2012 series of the ITV show and recently admitted that his Corrie pals have told him that they expect him to be more like ‘Bambi On Ice.’ He confessed that his first few weeks of training were tough, however they have been better than most as he is so far one of the only contestants not to have sustained an injury during rehearsals.

Age: 30
Professional partner: Vicky Ogden
All the lads from Corrie have been winding me up saying ‘It’s going to be like bambi on ice’, and then they add ‘when I watch it, I’ll be hoping you fall!
Coronation Street favourite Andy Whyment admits he never imagined taking part in Dancing On Ice but is feeling proud of his achievements so far even if he has to take constant mocking from his cast mates.
